    MUA is nothing you will be so much further ahead when done. Takes minutes to bust up scar tissue. I had it done with my 1st TKR but didnt need it for my last one 11 weeks ago. Youll be glad you had it done - no pain, believe me

    I'm 8 weeks post-OP TKR right side, my knee still really hurts, I can't seem to sit still, up off and on all dang night! only taking pain meds when needed, at least once a day. I do my excersises once a day. I can't ride in the car very long due to the pain. Any one else in the same boat? getting really depressed.
